Appearance

True to its name, this crow dwarfed the city skyline, its bulk outsizing an entire apartment block. Jet-black plumage covered it, red light burned in its eyes, and rows of large, sharp teeth lined the inside of its beak.

Personality

Little of the creature's mind is recorded. Like so many Mysterious Beings, it displayed plain hostility toward people.

Abilities

As a Demon-level monster, the crow ranked as a genuine danger, though Saitama ended it too fast for its full power to surface. It could stay aloft on its broad wings and struck with enough force to plow into a building unharmed. The databook credits it with venom-laced fangs and a grislier trick, the power to swallow a foe and absorb their strength, and it favored a diving beak strike called Fang Beak.

Even so, its threat is often measured by how quickly it fell. ONE has said the S-Class hero Puri-Puri Prisoner could have handled it, and by the databook's account King needed only four seconds to bring it down.
